Grand Theft Auto V benchmark on RTX 2060 12GB: FPS by resolution and quality
Pick yours and we recalculate the whole table above with it.
Grand Theft Auto V FPS with a RTX 2060 12GB and a Intel Core i5-13400
| Quality | 1080p (Full HD) | 1440p (2K) | 4K (Ultra HD) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ultra | 128FPS min 82Excellent | 85FPS min 65Good | 36FPS min 32Acceptable |
| High | 167FPS min 108Excellent | 110FPS min 84Good | 47FPS min 41Acceptable |
| Medium | 218FPS min 140Excellent | 144FPS min 109Excellent | 61FPS min 54Good |
| Low | 282FPS min 182Excellent | 187FPS min 142Excellent | 79FPS min 70Good |
| Bottleneck (estimated) | CPU 39% | CPU 19% | GPU 42% |
The percentage estimates how much of the stronger component's capability goes unused because of the other one.
This one does matter: from the Intel Core i9-14900K downwards the processor becomes the brake on the RTX 2060 12GB. There is 13% between the slowest and fastest CPU in the table. One caveat: this is at 1080p, where the CPU weighs most. At 1440p and 4K the graphics card takes over and the processor stops mattering.
DLSS performance: FPS with AI upscaling
Upscaling renders Grand Theft Auto V at a lower internal resolution and reconstructs the image, so you trade a little sharpness for extra frames. These are the estimated figures for the RTX 2060 12GB with DLSS enabled, starting from its native Ultra FPS.
| Resolution | Native | DLSS Quality | DLSS Performance |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1080p | 128 | 160 | 186 |
| 1440p | 85 | 115 | 140 |
| 4K | 36 | 52 | 67 |
About ray tracing: every figure on this page is with ray tracing off. The RTX 2060 12GB does have dedicated hardware for it, so you can turn it on in games that implement it. The FPS cost swings widely depending on how much ray tracing each title uses, and DLSS is exactly what people lean on to pay for it.
Estimated figures. The real gain varies by game and by the version of the technology.
Is the CPU or the graphics card holding you back?
These FPS assume a mid-range CPU that isn't a bottleneck — roughly a Intel Core i5-13400 — and 16 GB of RAM.
With that CPU, the RTX 2060 12GB has headroom to spare in Grand Theft Auto V: the processor runs out before the graphics card does. A faster processor would gain you FPS; a stronger graphics card would barely help. At 4K it flips: there the graphics card becomes the limit.
Is the RTX 2060 12GB Enough for Grand Theft Auto V?
The RTX 2060 12GB delivers 128 FPS at 1080p Ultra in Grand Theft Auto V. More than enough for 144Hz. You can comfortably play at 1440p.
At 1440p it gets 85 FPS and at 4K 36 FPS at Ultra quality.
This GPU is more than enough — you can play at 1440p or 4K comfortably
